2Brothers 2gether

Had baths together, followed by band time.

Then naps together!

Late night snacks

Aoooww Says the Wolf

We got the cutest dress up props today. Louis picked out a dinosaur tail for himself and grey wolf tail for Gabriel.

Oh Fridays...

Friday evenings are hard right now. Matt is bowling so the boys try to stay up as late as possible. Tonight I was able to get them both to calm down for a bit with me on the couch. They both ended up falling asleep.

 The boys sure spend a lot of time sleeping on the couch together. 

 

Chalk Talk

Our days are constantly busy. There is very little stopping, the boys are always on the go. They want to move from one activity to the next. Louis does take time to sit and do things but Gabriel isn't quite there yet. One thing that both boys will do for at least 15 minutes is play with chalk outside. Whether it be drawing on the garage door, sidewalk or driveway---they are content. Gabriel has started to draw more scribbles and really enjoys when you draw circles around him. Then he colors inside them.

Daddy's home!

Brother, Brother

One of the best decisions we made as a family to date was the one that made me a stay-at-home parent. While it can be chaotic, exhausting and sometimes redundant? It is never boring and having a chance to see the boys bond makes it all worth while. Today they were watching a show together, nicely side by side on the couch. Usually they end up irritating one another and it doesn't last very long but today it was like this for 15 minutes or so. At one point Gabriel had his head on Louis' shoulder and Louis had his arm around him.

Side by Side

Matt was away for the evening and the boys had little interest in going to sleep. The boys are wearing matching shirts-the Yankees-gifts from Grandma Ruth.  Wide awake. We had a late dinner. Fortunately afterward they calmed down a bit and went to sleep.

Bros Forever

Louis loves to pick out clothes for Gabriel to wear and he especially loves to go all matchy match with their outfits. His favorite outfit to match are pajamas. The boys ready for bed.
